I have hired MBC contractors on four occasions to renovate my home. They personally handled our…read moreremodel with professionalism, interest, and care. They were knowledgable in a well rounded manner, helped guide us on decisions which were tough to make, and provided options when needed. The daily teams always arrived on time, staged their work in a protected area, and ensured the project stayed isolated so the rest of house was clean. They were able to design and build a spa room with a hot tub addition to my home. The room has power, heat, ac, and and gives us four season access to our spa. Roberto does absolutely beautiful work and pays amazing attention to the detail. The price is always right and his workers are careful, courteous and always on time. I could not be more happy with the renovations. The craftsmanship was exactly what we had hoped for and we have already gotten compliments on the transformation of our home.

Short review: hiring Construction Systems of Virginia is the hardest I've ever had to work for a…read morejob I was paying somebody else to do. Between missed self-imposed deadlines, poor workmanship, and major mistakes, completing the project to satisfaction took constant vigilance on my part and a general knowledge of construction techniques I felt lucky to have, but would've left someone less experienced with sometimes unsafe conditions in their home. Overall, the project was completed, but it took significant effort, time, and money on my part and, as a result, I wouldn't recommend anybody to hire Construction Systems of Virginia. The final straw for me to write this review is that one of the two patio doors I had installed by CSOVA started peeling on the door jamb after only a year or two. I reached out to CSOVA to ask for a receipt so I could file a warranty claim with the manufacturer. They had no receipt. I asked for a statement or some kind of paperwork that I could send to the manufacturer. They said they would send it but have never followed up despite asking for it multiple times. My project was large in scope and took five months. I hired CSOVA via Patrick Mullen to repair the back exterior wall of my townhouse after we discovered mold on the inside. It's difficult to be concise with all the things that went sideways on this project so here's my top ten things that went wrong: 1. They installed an outlet without an electrical box 2. They didn't initially replace the piece of sheathing that caused our mold problem until I noticed it 3. They boarded up our laundry and bathroom exhaust vents, until I pointed it out. 4. They painted over our fireplace bricks when installing the mantle which was not requested nor inside the scope of work. 5. They bought the wrong insulation materials twice even though the brand was specifically listed in the contract 6. Materials were ordered late and delayed parts of the project 7. Siding repairs were mismatched for a different style that our HOA explicitly didn't allow. I had sent CSOVA our HOA terms. 8. They reattached our downspouts without the proper drain adapter (as it was before) 9. The brand new patio door they installed still leaked water after multiple repair attempts. 10. The work crew, on several occasions, breached the mold containment zone that the mold remediation company said not to breach. This list doesn't even include the lack of diligence on finish details that would indicate a professional install: wall and outlet plates not removed prior to painting (and when I did it myself for the 2nd coat, they were reinstalled immediately after painting before it could dry); a gallon paint can I supplied mangled to the point it had to be discarded; three different colors of caulk on the exterior of my door frame; mismatched screws on the hinges of a brand new patio door; a missing bracket on one downspout but not the other; different trim pieces for the same type of exhaust vent literally side-by-side; and probably more that Ive forgotten or yet to discover. All said and done, I cannot recommend CSOVA. I leave two stars because I do appreciate that Patrick always had a good attitude, was open to addressing the issues, and accommodating with scheduling. In the end, the work simply was not of quality without tremendous personal effort and time.

Construction systems attention to detail really helped our house come together. They completed the…read moreinterior finishes. The crown molding and trim really took our house to the next level. The color recommendations Patrick gave for wall/trim colors and fixtures were a subtle way to elevate and bring attention to the details, such as selecting pearl for the extensive crown molding to give it a shine. The shiplap ceiling and walls helped to create the airy, farm house feel we were aiming for. I took a lot of the design expertise of Owner Patrick. He recommended we add in the wainscoting to give the kitchen dining area an elevated, cozy feel. He also recommended we paint the ceiling and walls of the green room to give it a moody feel- At first I was skeptical but now cannot picture it any other way. He had the idea of combining the mudroom bricks with the shiplap walls- which is truly just dreamy... This house now exceeds anything I could have ever dreamed up. Patrick also gave multiple tile options and design ideas until we finally landed on our perfect match. I appreciated his willingness to work with my need to "see things" laid out before picking options. He provided multiple sample coats of paint options, laid the tile and floor choices next to each other so all I truly had to do was point my finger. The bathrooms now feel like I am stepping into a spa each day. Communication was huge as with any big project there are so many moving parts and changes, so I appreciated his quick responses and willingness to make adjustments as needed. While I have so many more positive things I could say, I will let their high quality work speak for itself with pictures.

After my basement flooded last November, I needed to find a good contractor to rebuild my finished…read morebasement. Sequoia Construction was recommended to me by a coworker. I was told that Bob and Jason are honest, reliable, and very detail-oriented. So we ended up using Sequoia to rebuild the entire basement with upgrades. We had them add a closet in the bedroom. We also had them completely demo our bathroom and turn the bathtub into a beautiful tiled standing shower with a frameless glass door. We had them run electrical to our porch for two heaters and run a line for a new subpanel in my garage with a Tesla wall connector wired into the new subpanel. I can't say enough good things about their work. Bob, Jason, and their employee Chris are incredibly reliable. They show up when they say they will be there. We trust them in our house even if we're not home. They are incredibly professional. I've used small-company contractors in the past that come out for the estimate, and then you never see them again because the work is done by subcontractors. Bob and Jason do all of their own work, with the exception of any specialty subcontractors that might need to be hired, such as a plumber, electrician, or carpet/flooring company. We liked their work so much that we decided to have them redo our entire kitchen this summer, install new hardwood floors, and paint our balusters and handrails on the stairs. They are almost finished with that job, and we are incredibly happy. Bob, Jason and Chris work at a solid pace, but put an emphasis on attention to detail. They clean up the worksite at the end of every day. I believe most of their work comes from referrals, which says a lot about them. I would recommend Sequoia to anyone.

I began working with Bob MacIntosh/Sequoia Construction last March because I was having trouble…read morewith my dryer vent and we had a washer that never stopped filling which resulted in a flood! I decided I wanted to relocate the laundry room. Bob gently told me that this was not necessary. He suggested moving the dryer vent and adding a drain. I then made a decision to update my home. Bob sent me to Reico in Springfield and I worked with Shanae Mobley, who was patient with me as I made decisions and she spent a lot of time making adjustments to make sure I was completely satisfied. My next task was heading to East West Marble Company in Chantilly to make my granite selections. I made an appointment with Andrea and SHE worked with me all SEVEN times I visited. Dominion Granite installed all the granite and the counters look beautiful! Bob also sent me to Executive Floors in Manassas and I worked directly with Mr. Barnes. This was a treat. He helped me make a decision about the vinyl floors---encouraging me to keep the existing hardwood floors and work around the tile Bob and Jason were installing. Bob then sent me to daltile in Manassas and I worked directly with Bonnie Phillips. I had NO IDEA what I liked and had only looked at Houzz. I have met with Bonnie four times to make the tile selections for the bathrooms, floors, and fireplace. Each time, she helped me make decisions and put things together for me that I would have never considered. Bob & Jason have been working in my home EVERY DAY since September 19, 2021. My house looks spectacular. I have given several tours to friends, family, and co-workers. All are impressed with the fact that my house really does not look like it is being renovated. They arrive after I leave for work and clean up and organize the areas before I get home. They love my dog and she looks forward to their visits. Bob suggested I use Build.com to order my items---and after establishing an account....I added Bob who can review my purchases to make sure I have everything I need. During the whole process they prepared me for what was coming. They put my washer and dryer back as they worked so I would have access to it. They set up my undercabinet microwave so I could use it during the kitchen renovation. I always had access to a sink! My house is still a work in progress. The kitchen, master bathroom, full upstairs bath, laundry room, and wet bar area are done. They are currently painting and will begin on the fireplace and powder room, doors AND---when the floors arrive in the port---they will be here to remove the carpet and check the floors prior to the installation. Bob and Jason are very thorough and meticulous about their work. They have consistently made adjustments and have helped me to make decisions throughout this process. Bob & Jason have made this process very easy and if you are considering a renovation-small or large...I would highly recommend getting an estimate from them. If I could give them 10 stars I would.

We absolutely love the work they did and have recommended them to many family and friends. From the initial assessment, Javier was open, honest, and easy to work with to ensure we were happy with the end product and stayed within our budget. I had a general vision for the main floor and they executed it flawlessly and added a few key items that we now don't think we can live without. The staff was professional, exceptionally skilled, and completed the work timely. We are very grateful that we found them and will call on them for any future project. Highly recommend!

It has become the best room in our entire house, and if given the chance, I would have them redo the entire house without hesitation. Javier, in particular, was a pleasure to work with - he is incredibly patient and understanding. It took us two years to finally be able to afford finishing our basement, and throughout that time, Javier was always there to answer any questions I had. When we were ready to proceed, he still had the plans he had created two years earlier. The entire team at remodel America was fantastic. They went above and beyond by even installing lights and ceiling fans in other rooms of my house while they were working on the basement. I am extremely satisfied with the work done by remodel America and will definitely turn to them for any future home improvements. I am excited about the sunroom project that Javier designed, and I hope to have that completed soon as well.

We just completed a major kitchen and master bath remodeling job with Heartland, and we couldn't be…read morehappier. It was a 3-1/2 month project, start to finish, and Heartland made every step an easy one. From the design process with Nick Clapes and Molly Holland, who both had wonderful and tasteful ideas that we just loved, to the demolition and new construction with our great project manager, Marty Fletcher (who took over seamlessly when our original PM left Heartland). All in all, it was a huge project, but every little bump in the road was handled quickly and efficiently (and there will always be bumps in the road!). Communication throughout the project was also excellent. We always knew exactly where we were at and kept informed about everything. And I'd be remiss if I didn't thank everyone who worked on our project: Carpenters - Hugo, Yerko, Nestor, Ady, and Carlos Electricians - Rudy and his crew Plumber - Gerson and his crew Drywall and Painters - Sual and his crew Tile - David Flooring - Alex and his crew You all were so helpful, so professional, and so friendly (especially dealing with our overly-friendly dog, Chiara!), and we are so appreciative of all of your hard work on our behalf! I selected Heartland for this project because I found them listed as a local Best Pick (http://bestpickreports.com/), which is a fantastic resource for finding fully vetted and insured professsionals, and then hired them for a smaller initial project (replacing a staircase). They did a fabulous job on that, so I was happy to hire them again. In conclusion, if you are looking for a fantastic, reputable company to do any home remodeling, you cannot go wrong with Heartland Design & Remodeling. We are still in the process of unpacking and settling back into the house, so I won't post any pictures yet. But trust me, it's gorgeous!

She help to clarify how they could be accommodated, gave alternative ideas to consider and consistently helped us with determining cost efficiencies - she was always attentive and respectful to the budget we had for the remodel of our finished basement. She clarified and mitigated small concerns as they arose to our satisfaction. Liz with her style savvy and knowledge provided great renderings of the vision. She coordinated all design meetings and thankfully with her anxiety alleviating calm, supportive demeanor and keen attention to detail, helped us make decisions from paint colors to fixtures. Then David as our very responsive and dedicated project manager brought the organization of all the trade partners together to successfully bring the full project to completion and within the designated timing we so needed. If we had questions or needed slight changes - David was quick to accommodate. We are grateful to Heartland for their cooperation and service excellence. We look forward to working with them again and would definitely recommend their services.

If I could give 0 stars I would. Lofft Construction was recommended to us by some neighborhood…read morefriends. Alex came to our house and gave us an estimate to repair our front steps and told us they would last a very long time. A few days later, his workers showed up, unannounced, asking what they needed to do. I told them I have no idea, and my husband is not home, and to coordinate a time with him. A few days later (on a Sunday), they showed up unannounced again! My husband was out again! They asked me to pick a paint color and I asked if that is included in the price we were quoted and they said they didn't know. As I was trying to figure that out, it came out that they don't think repairing the stairs is a good idea and they can't even guarantee they won't break again for even 3 days. I asked if it would be a lot more expensive to redo the whole thing and they said it would be exponentially more expensive. I told them we'll talk to Alex and get back to them. 30 minutes later, Alex calls my husband screaming at him! He told him that we shouldn't ask his contractors about prices and that he doesn't work that way and that we should find someone else to work with and hung up the phone on my husband! He was literally screaming at my husband on the phone. And then hung up on him. There are so many issues with our experience starting with the fact that the workers kept showing up without prior notice and asking a lot of questions as if they didn't know what they were supposed to be doing. And then of course the fact that he was trying to scam us into doing something that he knew might not even last the week. And then finally, calling my husband and screaming at him and hanging up on him because his workers were asking us a lot of questions?! It's just been an atrocious experience. I recommend avoiding him at all costs. UPDATE: Alex is now threatening my husband over text messages because of our review. We are just stating facts. He said we are inappropriate to contact him on a Sunday when it was his contractors who showed up at our doorstep, unannounced, on a Sunday, and we were just calling to clear things up with him because they had no idea what they were supposed to do and were asking me a lot of questions. He also accused us of trying to strike a deal with his subcontractors, something that didn't cross our minds for one second. We were just trying to figure out if the paint his contractors were making me choose was included in the estimate he provided us.

Alex was helpful and responsive in coming to my home, talking me through the process and promptly providing a quote.

The project began and ended exactly on schedule. Eric and Freddie were easy to work with, dependable, did a fantastic job and kept the worksite clean during the project. I'm going to redo my master bath and will look to Lofft to do the project. I'd give them six stars if the system allowed.

I hired this company to redo a shower stall. Because they were already going to be doing concrete…read morework in the shower stall, I pointed out two, small, hand-sized areas of concrete that needed patching on my balcony. The owner Chris, said he would not charge me because it was negligible. I was happy that they were a good faith company who wouldn't nickel and dime me. Boy, I turned out to be wrong on that! Their work in the shower was just alright. It required a second pass to fix some lines that were not quite straight and they offered to fix it. The shower was substantially less work than initially scoped. The estimate was for a much larger job than needed to be done to fix the shower. I expected to get a discount on the initial estimate. Chris discounted me $200. I agree to pay him the full estimate minus $200 for services not rendered in the initial estimate. After the job is complete, Chris suddenly springs me with an additional charge of $100. He wants to charge me for the balcony patches, which were two child's hand-sized areas. This was quite irritating because not only did they not have to do as much of a job on the shower as they initially thought, but he was going to flip-flop on his initial word that he wouldn't charge me for patching the balcony concrete. He began harassing me via e-mail, using adjectives like "ridiculous" and questioning my character. This was extremely unprofessional and uncalled for. Within a couple of emails he began threatening to take out a lien on my property. That sounded odd to me, like he was bullying and on an anger trip rather than negotiating like a regular contractor. A lien on my property for a dispute over $100? Sounded unreasonable. I would have gladly paid the $100 if he had been honest with the charge up-front, or if he had sent me a change order in writing saying that the balcony patching would take more effort and he wanted to charge for the balcony. It was neither. The patches were tiny and he did much less work in the shower than he initially expected to have to do. It seemed like he was extorting me for additional money after the work was complete because he felt he could get away with threatening me, or because he didn't really like the fact that he had to do a second pass on the shower floor to get it right. I began talking to my condo building manager about this contractor. I learned that he fired one of his workers who was known for doing outstanding work on bathrooms, then threatened him physically if he ever worked on remodeling any of our building units. In short, this guy is trouble. Like the other reviewer also noted, he changes price quotes in the middle of a job or after the job is done, and gets nasty and short-tempered. There are a ton of contractors out there, save yourself a headache.
